Crown's XLS Series amplifiers define the standard for portable PA systems with unmatched performance, technology and affordability. Its advantageous flexibility includes multiple inputs so you can plug in anything and play anywhere, along with several system setup configurations. The integrated crossovers and switch-mode power supply produce superior sound, and Peakx™ limiters protect your speakers. Weighing less than 12 pounds, compared to 40 pounds for its competitors, it's much easier to set up and move from show to show. Simply put, the XLS is most reliable, versatile, efficient amp available today.

The XLS Series of power amplifiers from Crown define the standard for live sound systems with unmatched performance, technology, and affordability.

This high-performance line consists of four models each providing enormous power and flexibility thanks to the integrated DriveCore™ Technology, PureBand™ Crossover System and Peakx™ limiters. And weighing in at only 10 lbs or less, they provide the ultimate in lightweight portability.

Generating chest-thumping lows and crystal clear highs, the four models in the series – the XLS1000, XLS1500, XLS2000, and XLS2500 – are engineered to meet any demanding audio requirements – reliably and within budget.

With over five decades of experience designing and building rock-solid products, Crown is the standard in amplifier technology. So check out the Crown XLS Series. They are a powerful argument for performance, flexibility, and value!

Integrated DriveCore™ Technology

Class D amplifiers are notable for extraordinarily high efficiency and being well suited for driving difficult reactive loads such as subwoofers. However, their performance can suffer impaired performance on marginal and unstable AC line supplies.

To overcome this obstacle, Crown engineers developed DriveCore™ Technology – a proprietary hybrid analog-digital integrated circuit (IC) developed with Texas Instruments that drives the "front end" of the Class D output stage. Over 60 years of Crown's design knowledge and experience went into the development of this technology resulting in truly remarkable benefits.

DriveCore™ Technology provides an extremely wide-tolerance with regards to sagging or "dirty" AC line conditions providing consistent performance without affecting audio quality. This means that your performance will not be compromised by fluctuating generator power or overloading by lighting rigs, backline gear, etc.

This advanced power supply is highly efficient and optimized for maximum power transfer from the AC line through the Class D output stage to the loudspeakers. A benefit to this is substantial weight reduction when compared to older 60Hz transformer-based power supplies. All four models in the line weigh 10 pounds or less with no compromise in performance. This makes the XLS Series the benchmark for high performance lightweight portability.

Peakx™ limiters

Peakx™ limiters provide the ultimate in performance and protection for your entire system. This advanced algorithm was specifically developed and tuned to work with this amplifier and power-supply to achieve higher SPL will less audible artifacts. This means less distortion, less shutdowns, and maximum safe power delivered to your speakers. The Peakx™ limiters can be easily turned on or off by channel right from the front panel eliminating the need to be digging around in the back of the dark rack.

I needed to add some extra sound to my existing DJ system. This Amp did the job. Great product. So light weight, my 5 year old can carry it. This Amp is just great. Works well with my JBL 4ohm speakers. The built-in cross over feature is great to have. Runs amazingly cool. I would recommend using an EQ and a Sonic maximizer to get the most of your system. I'm not saying this because there is anything wrong with the Amp but only because I have it setup this way and I can really see the difference with and without and EQ and sonic maximizer. But again the amp by itself works just fine. I did a lot of research and decided to add an EQ and Sonic Maximizer (BBE 382I-SW) and I'm so glad that I did. Bottom line…. you can go wrong with this Amp. Go for it!

ohms are a measure of speaker resistance.. the amp is not "set" to ohms... its simply giving you specs for a particular configuration.. most speakers are 8 ohm.... however... hook 2 up to a channel ( 4 total) in parallel and you have a 4ohm load.. here is one situation that works... run system in mono... not unusually for a DJ of club... set one side for subs and one side for uppers, this gets you the 4 ohm load and more output from amp... but be aware a lower load often = more heat.. and more heat = less reliability..

A:

You will be getting the ohms from whatever speaker you're using. It usually says the ohms on the back and then you can set your amp accordingly.

A:

No it can be used at 8ohms to , to change the ohms u must add or subtract speakers depending on the ohms on ur speakers

Q:

I wanna know if the crown xls2500 pro xls series power amps are/have a universal switch from 110vol. to 220-240vol. or will I have to use and adopter?
